Goals from Bernardo Silva and club legend Sergio Aguero in the first half were enough for City to move ahead of title rivals Liverpool in the Premier League table ahead of the Merseyside club's crucial clash with Tottenham Hotspur today.

After a win against Fulham fresh off the back of worldwide duty the team were back at it in the Manchester sunshine.

"In the first 20 minutes, they were absolute dynamite". We played with incredible spirit, we could have scored more.

Fulham is 13 points from safety with 18 points to play for. We did what we should do. Always you have doubts about how they're going to react.

When Liverpool chose to spend so much money on signing Alisson a lot of eyebrows were raised but now it is safe to say that the Brazilian is one of the main reasons why the Reds have stopped leaking goals this season. That is unusual, and that is why I am so satisfied.

Manchester City too had a similar problem when Guardiola took over as the former Barcelona man chose to replace then No 1 Joe Hart with Claudio Bravo.

Ilkay Gundogan's shot was saved and both Sterling and Bernardo Silva had attempts blocked in quick succession with the home side struggling to get out of their own defensive third.

"We are going to do everything to win".

City will face Tottenham in the Champions League quarter-finals and Brighton in the FA Cup's last four, with Guardiola relishing the clogged schedule and the pressure. Sometimes you win easily with the top six, and sometimes you get a hard game, but it's the same with the teams at the bottom of the table.

"Every game we have to win if we want to be champions".

"It's really important, but he is still a little bit far away from his best condition", said Guardiola, of Fernandinho.

For manager Pep Guardiola, the lunchtime stroll at Craven Cottage, featuring the return of key players like Kevin De Bruyne and Fernandinho after injury, felt like the most flawless resumption with the pressure immediately restored on Liverpool. "For precaution he decided not to continue, hopefully it's nothing serious". I think they are ready.
